LynB Review: Lilac's Office Takeover, Sun Bleached Neons, & April Monthly Exclusives

PR Sample

It is time for a massive LynB Designs showcase! This launch was so big that I’ve broken it down by collection and category to make it easier to navigate. These beauties have already launched, so you can head over to lynbdesigns.store right now to pick up your favorites. We are starting things off with the April Exclusives, including the Polish of the Month and the latest charity polish, before diving into the main collections like Lilac's Office Takeover and the Sun Bleached Pastel Neon Cremes. Let’s get started!

April Monthly Exclusives

Be Kind To Your Mind: muted purple base with blue to violet shifting shimmer and added linear holo.
6 dollars from each bottle will be donated to:
Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center / Angels Among Us: https://www.supportdukehealth.org/
Idrees Danish Memorial Scholarship: https://www.theuncles.org/




POTM: Cardigan Revamped: pepto pink base loaded with intense blue to violet shifting shimmer. More opaque than I thought it would be, which is so nice. It's juicy and squishy and dare I say it's not giving me "Pepto" pink at all. So soft and beautiful; the shimmer adds that special something!

Lilac's Office Takeover Collection

Boot Scootin’ Froopy: muted mauve base with silver magnetic pull. A lovely shade with really good magnetic pull. I used a new magnet for the index and middle finger which is No. 2, multiple diagonal lines from the popular set from Amazon. and the last two nails are glass bead. My first time doing that one!




La Froopacabra: deep violet base filled with red to orange shifting shimmer




No Thoughts Detected: pastel teal base with purple to pink shifting shimmer and a ghostly lavender magnetic pull. I was so mesmerized by the base color I completely forgot to magnetize it. Name checks out for my brain state, I guess!




Resting Froop Face: a UCC flakie spectacular in shades of green to blue and pink to gold with added holo accents

Sun Bleached Pastel Neon Cremes Collection

Compassion Fruit: pastel neon magenta creme




Grape Job: pastel neon cool toned purple creme




Lime All Yours: pastel neon green creme




So Berry Special: pastel neon blue creme




What A Peach: pastel neon coral creme




You're The Zest: pastel neon cool toned yellow creme




All of my swatches are shown in two thick coats with topcoat and had no formula issues unless otherwise stated. All photography uses a neutral color temperature bulb with white bounce card. My nails are natural with no enhancements and no blurring/cream base, I have a fairly prominent VNL.

Never miss a swatch!

Hella Handmade Creations: April 2026

PR Sample

Happy HHC day! The April shop is officially open and I am so excited to show you what I have on my desk. My swatch pile was a big one this month, featuring everything from beautiful charity polishes to new additions for our favorite ongoing series.

Just a quick reminder that the shop is open for pre-orders now through April 22nd. Since it is a pre-order system, your goodies will ship out once the makers have finished their production window.

I have a lot to get through today, but remember there are even more brands to check out at hellahandmadecreations.com.

Let’s jump right into the swatches!
